A ragbag of old advertisements and anecdotes extols Packlen's Aruoiy Salve as a universal healer for cat burns corns and skin ailments. It mixes in home steam inhalation, Slavonic superstition, Henry Van Dyke quotes, barber shop quips, milk problems, and Japan's modernization alongside local lore and oddities.
Old John Davin and Mrs Field tend lavender as a restless wait for Jean’s return fills the scene. Mrs Field recalls past sorrows while hoping for a comeback, and a halting figure emerges from the dusk toward the garden gate.
The Gregory Fireworks company of Chicago will stage a five night display starting September 4 at the Michigan State Fair. The program features aerial guns, Bengal lights, two giant fire balloons, the star spangled banner flight, numerous bombs and rockets, the Merry Acrobat, Peacock rockets, the Sultan's Fun, the Golden Sunset wheel, and the Girondela device with a thirty foot spread. A skilled crew, long in the business, aims to deliver a remarkable and safe exhibition drawing crowds to Detroit.
The Michigan State Fair will waive admission for all children under twelve on Tuesday September 7. Detroit Public Schools will delay opening by one day to allow children to attend, a move the fair hopes other districts will follow to create a state wide holiday at the fair.
Admission to the grandstand and bleachers will be one reduced price of twenty five cents during the fair from September 2 to September 16. The single rate is intended to encourage attendance at the exhibits, races, horse show, fireworks, and other attractions, with the new pricing simplifying access for the public.
